I've only been a handful of times and during those times it was the lure of a cheap room, cheap flight on SW and party at the pool during the day. The flights are not cheap, the rooms are $$ and they nickel and dime you to death on STUPID things and the amount of $$ it takes to hang at the pool are ridiculous. I used to get a kick to go on Fremont St, but with the cost of everything just make it undesirable for me. If a friend got married there I would go, but to just go for the weekend isn't worth it when I can get down to Cancun in 2.5 hours

If you live in Texas, you can just drive to Oklahoma or Louisiana for you casino fix.

Would be curious to see if there's been a down-turn (or an up-turn) in Orlando tourism.... plenty of overseas travelers going there as a destination.

International tourism in Orlando overall is down 9%- because of the recent political "theatre" going on.

Agree with you - especially since COVID they apparently are nickle and diming everyone to death and that just makes for a negative experience.
